Description

Explore the depths of horror and science fiction with this academic study from Routledge. The Unnameable Monster in Literature and Film examines the concept of the 'Thing' through its many forms. This book focuses on how the monster represents excess and indeterminacy, acting as a persistent presence in various literary traditions. By analyzing the gothic, science fiction, and horror modes, Beville looks at the elusive nature of these creatures. The text argues for a shift in perspective, suggesting that we should look directly at the monster to better understand ourselves. This interdisciplinary work provides a deep look into the sublime objects that exceed our fears, making it a valuable resource for students and scholars of film and literature.
